How can I log any login operation in case of "Remember Me" option ?
- by Space Cracker
I have an asp.net login web form that have ( username textBox - password textBox ) plus Remember Me CheckBox option
When user login i do the below code
if (provider.ValidateUser(username, password))
{
int timeOut = 0x13;
DateTime expireDate = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(19.0);
if (rememberMeCheckBox.Checked)
{
timeOut = 0x80520;
expireDate = DateTime.Now.AddYears(1);
}
FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(username, true, timeOut);
string cookieValue = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(ticket);
HttpCookie cookie = new HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName, cookieValue);
cookie.Expires = expireDate;
HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
AddForLogin(username);
Response.Redirect("...");
}
as in code after user is authenticated i log that he login in db by calling method AddForLogin(username);
But if user choose remember me in login and then he try to go to site any time this login method isn't executed as it use cookies ... so i have many questions:
1- Is this the best way to log login operation or is there any other better ?
2- In my case how to log login operation in case of remember me chosen by user ?
